Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Congregated Settings: Nursing Homes
Mr. Tadhg Daly:
Yes. In the early stages, as the Deputy said, it was quite chaotic. Everybody was scrambling to ensure that they had enough supply. We made a suggestion in the early stage that every nursing home should have a three-day supply in-house so they could deal with either a confirmed case or, more important, a suspected case. We also felt that among our members, if we had a three-day supply people could share, maybe, in a given location.
